Honeymoon AND wedding in New Zealand!
Steve and Nicky first contacted us back in April 2009 to ask us to help with their plan to travel to New Zealand to get married.
We therefore had time to plan everything perfectly and, despite a Singapore Airlines schedule change in September presenting us with some challenges, all was looking good and we were set to go. In steps Eyjafjallajökul.
Of course the volcano caused disruption to many, many people and we had some clients who were stranded In New Zealand and others who had to cancel their holidays. For Steve and Nicky this was much more than a holiday though.
They could do nothing other than watch the crisis deepen as their departure date approached and I felt so sorry for them, especially as I could do nothing to make them feel better other than assure them that we would do everything we could to help.
Then, just as it looked as though there was no hope, the wind changed and airspace reopened. In case of any doubt, the photos prove that they got to the church on time!
Hi Paul
Now the dust has settled and reality has set back, being back at work etc, I thought I'd email you some wedding photos. I'll also send off the feedback form over the weekend. Also, when we got back to Christchurch we were expecting a 'normal' room, however, we ended up in a three bedroom, split level suite! A fine way to end our stay in New Zealand. We've already said we'll go back for our 5th anniversary! Time to start saving.
We had a most memorable trip, stayed in some amazing places (Maison De La Mer and Adrift deserve special mentions), done so much that we wanted to, but there is still so much left to see and do.
I know it's a cliche to say it was the holiday of a lifetime, but for us it really was. Your organasition etc certainly helped make it so and our thanks go to you.
Regards
Steve and Nicky Rosendale
